Speed Control Of Three Phase Induction Motor By Employing Modified Sepic Converter
Abstract
This project is used to control the speed of three phase induction motor by employing modified sepic converter. The modified sepic converter is used to boost the input voltage. The boosted dc voltage is applied to the three phase inverter. This three phase VSI operates at 120 degree mode of operation. Three phase induction motor speed depends on the frequency of inverter.
Introduction
This project is mainly used for renewable energy source like solar, wind etc. The solarconverts the sunlight directly into electricity. That voltage range is low, so that low voltage is boosted by using the converter circuits. Converter is used to convert the low voltage dc into high voltage dc. Solar energy is involved in power plants, homes made appliances, ventilation systems, commercial appliances, solar lighting, cars and other remote applications where transmission and distribution is done.
Proposed System
The modified sepic converter has two inductors and one power devices for boosting the input voltage. If the power device duty cycle is varied the output voltage of the converter is also varied. The converter output dc voltage is applied to the three phase inverter circuit. It converts the dc voltage into three phase ac voltage to drive the three phase induction motor. The PIC controller has key function for controlling the speed of the induction motor.
